Abstract:

The principal quest for conducting this research is to better understand personal mobility of older Americans living in rural areas. This is achieved through reviewing the methodologies utilized to collect data on mobility gaps and their root causes as well as discuss the trends that promote pursuing future personal mobility research. The information in this paper is a continuation to the first follow-up to research made possible by an on-going Toyota Mobility Challenge research project at Prairie View A&M University (PVAMU) which is located in Waller County, Texas.
